The Rain Killer from 1990 is a crime thriller directed by Ken Stein. The film centers around a serial killer who preys on young women during rainy nights in Los Angeles. The story follows Detective Martin Stoner (played by Ray Sharkey) who is assigned to the case of finding the Rain Killer. Along with his partner Detective Marty Howe (played by David Beecroft), they begin to piece together the clues that ultimately lead them to the killer's true identity.

The Rain Killer opens with the murder of a young woman who is found strangled and left in a parking lot on a rainy night. Stoner and Howe immediately begin their investigation and discover that there have been several other similar murders in the area. All of the victims were young, attractive women who were killed during rainy weather. The detectives conclude that they are dealing with a serial killer, whom they dub the "Rain Killer".

As the investigation progresses, several suspects emerge, including a sexually deviant lawyer, a wealthy businessman with a history of violence, and a drug-addicted prostitute. However, none of them seem to fit the profile of the Rain Killer. Meanwhile, the killer continues to strike, leaving a trail of bodies in his wake.

Stoner becomes increasingly obsessed with the case, which begins to take a toll on his personal life. He is separated from his wife and struggles with alcoholism, which further complicates the investigation. However, he refuses to give up and continues to pursue the killer relentlessly.

Eventually, Stoner and Howe uncover a lead that takes them to the killer's lair. In a dramatic confrontation, they come face to face with the Rain Killer and engage in a deadly struggle to apprehend him before he can kill again.

The Rain Killer is a tense and suspenseful thriller that keeps the audience guessing until the very end. The performances of the lead actors are strong, particularly Ray Sharkey's portrayal of the troubled and determined Detective Stoner. The film also effectively captures the moody atmosphere of rainy Los Angeles, which adds to the overall sense of dread and unease.

Overall, The Rain Killer is an enjoyable and well-crafted thriller that is sure to please fans of the genre.
